Pics don't work for me. What ever happened to the half cab you had? The 71.

I will have to find another photo sharing site and reload the pictures, Photobucket isn't allowing 3rd party hosting anymore.

The other half cab is still under construction at Jak's. I sold the half cab top/bulkhead to Gordon Bailie, sold the U14 frame/title/glovebox door to Classic Ford Broncos, and building a 76 Ranger wagon using the body. I'm not partial to half cabs even though I keep finding them and buying them. I have a large family so I need the seating.

I didn't make it to OCBR in it this year but it doesn't matter - had a great time with some great folks!! The build is still going forward and doesn't have to be rushed now. The body is 100% solid now and the flex should be ideal.
